Poignant ocassionally; nevertheless gratifying, mostly

Got a picture of you I carry in my heart

Close my eyes to see it when the world gets dark
Got a memory of you I carry in my soul
I wrap it close around me when the nights get cold
If you asked me how I'm doing I'd say just fine
But the truth is baby, if you could read my mind

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
After all this time you're still with me it's true
Somehow you remain locked so deep inside
Baby, baby, oh baby, not a day goes by

I still wait for the phone in the middle of the night
Thinking you might call me if your dreams don't turn out right
And it still amazes me that I lie here in the dark
Wishing you were next to me, with your head against my heart
If you asked me how I'm doing I'd say just fine
But the truth is baby, if you could read my mind

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
After all this time you're still with me it's true
Somehow you remain locked so deep inside
Baby, baby, oh baby, not a day goes by

Minutes turn to hours, and the hours to days
Seems it's been forever that I've felt this way.

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
After all this time you're still with me it's true
Somehow you remain locked so deep inside
Baby, baby, oh baby, not a day goes by

 

Ever listened to a song that; spoke right to your heart, portrayed your innermost emotions and consequently aroused them rendering you defenseless?

Well, I absolutely relate to this one; “Not a day goes by”, an overly mellow ballad done by Lonestar. I know these lyrics by heart and can absolutely identify with each and every line.

This is precisely how I feel about/for some lad who "marked" my heart and try as I may to fly the coop, still “remains locked so deep”.  

I have subconsciously lingered in a make-believe queue for when my turn will eventually come; pushing away his genus in view of the fact that "the heart wants what it wants" and "it's never too late"

The lines; “Minutes turn to hours and the hours to days. Seems it's been forever that I've felt this way” portray unerringly what I’ve endured for this seemingly unfeasible love. Nevertheless, I have to bite the bullet...my heart is grudging about "relinquishing" this man! 

It is well; in truth, I'm nonchalant. When it's all said and done, I haven’t met anyone that tickles my fancy enough anyway. Or is it by the virtue of the fact that I haven’t given anyone room sufficient enough to bid? Well, whatever!

Music has the clout to evoke or enhance an amalgam of emotions varying from aches to glee. A song can get you letting your hair down or simply ruminating; hinging on the sentiment inflamed and many a time, genre.


I stop short of "screaming the feelings away" on any occasion this case in point plays owing to the fact that it gets me eating my heart out over the young man that enthralled my entire being. This song always provokes "tangerine" emotions! Always!

At any rate, music can have such a weighty effect on one; the reality that it's merely an elementary collection of words accompanied by instruments and mellow voices notwithstanding . Simply awesome!

It goes without saying that it's chiefly soul nourishing!
